Dead Cops/America’s so Straight (Live at Cbgb’s 1983)
No more police!
(Feedback)
Imagine a world with no more police, where the word "cops" is dead
Where people really take care of their own
That's what we are searching for, and ready to work for
It's time for a switch, they are the army of the rich
So as not your fucking slaves, we're gonna piss on their graves
Dead cops
Dead cops
Dead cops
Dead cops
Down on the street
Giving poor the heat
With their clubs and guns
They do it all for fun
Dead cops
Dead cops
Dead cops
Dead cops
They're in the Klan too
Brutality is their sport
Let's put 'em to the torch
Dead cops
Dead cops
Dead cops
Dead cops
Rebel, rebel on the street
Makeup on my face
Stockings on my feet
Parents asking me "Why are you not a normal American guy?"
What makes them so straight
And me so bent?
What makes them so straight
And me so bent?
What makes them so straight
And me so bent?
What makes them so straight
And me so bent?
Called the land of the free
They say it's the home of the brave
They call me a queen
I'm just another human being
What makes America so straight
And me so bent?
What makes America so straight
And me so bent?
What makes America so straight
And me so bent?
What makes America so straight
And me so bent?
Your authority and your power
Has turned us sick and sour
And your justice is a lie
And we're gonna fight until you die
What makes them so straight
And me so bent?
What makes them so straight
And me so bent?
What makes America so straight
And me so bent?
What makes America so straight
And me so bent?
Dead Cops, dead cops, dead cops
Watcha gonna do
The Mafia in blue
Huntin' for queers
Niggers and you
Dead cops, dead cops, dead cops, dead cops
